2027
187
2029
203

Revenue upside
At $18,077 per student in district revenue, the 37 students projected to be gained by 2029 represent ≈ $668,849/year in additional funding.
District total revenue ÷ enrollment, NCES F-33. Public funding largely follows enrollment, so a shrinking class is a recurring budget hit.
